Cross the threshold as you let grief guide the way to a truer you

A 6-month, 1:1 journey blending grief, life and leadership coaching with strategic mentorship. For those ready to step through the threshold grief has opened, into a truer you and a more deeply lived life.

Grief is seismic, earth-shattering change thrust upon you. In a lightning-bolt instant, your world looks alien, and who you are now feels completely different to who you were before.

But grief can also sharpen your focus on what really matters. It presents a door of transformation, an invitation to step over the threshold of grief into a new way of being.

Where you gently step into conscious relationship with your grief, and chart a new path that is truer to the inner compass of values that drives you.

The Threshold is for heart-led, high-achieving humans who have spent a lifetime holding it together for everyone else — and are now ready to be held. Ready to honour your grief and rebuild around it. To be truly heard, and let grief become the alchemy that shapes the life you're here to live.

Are you ready to walk this threshold together?

Tell me if any of these sound like you...

• You've always been the capable one — the one who shows up, holds it together and looks after everyone else. Now grief is asking you to finally put yourself at the centre of your life.

• Confused and perhaps stressed by this thing called grief, that none of us were taught about — worried about its potential to derail you and wanting to find your pathway through.

• Grief has hit and turned your life upside down, its lightning bolt shining a spotlight on uncomfortable truths: things need to change. It could be in career, relationships, lifestyle, passions...

• You might be questioning who you are now, with grief making you question your identity, values, and what you're prioritising in this one sacred life.

• Or grief might have given you absolute loud speaker clarity on what you need to prioritise, and you want to know how to make this your reality.

• You might doubt your ability to navigate the tough stuff — avoiding grief, plus difficult decisions, conversations and boundaries you know you need.

Picture yourself crossing the threshold

Imagine a life where you've stopped running from grief and instead embraced it as part of you - understanding its meaning, and the beautiful meaning and growth that can bloom through it.

▼

Imagine taking the whispers from your heart, and the lightning-bolt clarity grief brings about what is and isn't working, and turning them into your reality.

▼

Imagine listening, finally, to the big, bold idea you've always wanted to make happen - using your grief and a new depth of self-belief as the catalyst.

▼

Imagine feeling confident riding the waves of grief and everything life brings, with a toolkit built to support and self-coach yourself through them.

▼

Imagine deepening your connection to your body and intuition. Tapping into inner wisdom that had been drowned out to guide your path forwards.

▼

Imagine carrying the love for the person you've lost into how you live in this forwards path — building a life that honours them, and feels unmistakably yours.

We aren’t meant to journey alone

I know that crossing these thresholds of grief and major life transitions can be hard, complicated and needs careful holding.

That's the spirit I bring into my work as a double-certified (AC, IPHM and ACCPH), trauma-informed Grief, Life and Leadership Coach - with additional training as an End of Life Doula and Nature Connection Coach.

Ultimately at the heart of my work is me sitting by your side, as a coach and bereaved mother, who went through the death of her daughter, an earlier miscarriage and the death of her 3 grandparents in just 4 years.

With our sessions your sacred space in a chaotic life, and my high touch support in between.

Some sessions we'll slow right down and simply hold what's here. Others, we'll roll up our sleeves and strategise for forwards momentum. I'll always meet you where you are and help you to gently pace this path.

Your coach, mentor and guide

Hey, I'm Tanya,

An AC, IPHM and ACCPH double certified Grief, Life & Leadership Coach, End of Life Doula, and bereaved mother who has walked through five profound losses in four years, including the death of my darling daughter, Ngākau Raiona (lioness heart), at 21 weeks into pregnancy.

I spent 14 years in global marketing leadership, including the shiny role as a global Head of Marketing for Formula 1 — before grief asked me a question I could no longer ignore. Am I living my dream, or someone else’s?

It wasn't strength that got me through my grief. Strength is a brittle label we give grievers who feel anything but. What got me through was lioness hearted courage — the courage to stop bypassing the hardest, most human parts of being alive. To cross the threshold into feeling them, and letting them teach me instead.

I've held that threshold with elite professional athletes, musicians, editors-in-chief, CEOs, C-suite leaders and entrepreneurs. I bring two decades of strategic and leadership experience working in iconic brands (F1, Sony Music, Universal Music, Virgin Media) and for high profile talent (Mark Ronson, Calvin Harris and Kesha), and 5+ years of experience as a professional coach.

Creating spaces where the goal is to help you curate a life that you can thrive in — grief and all!
